GLBTI | the GLORIA's

The Golden GLORIA for the worst comment of the year went to Jim Wallace from the Australian Christian Lobby for his winning comments in the religion category:

Religion: Managing Director of the Australian Christian Lobby Jim Wallace for his ANZAC day tweet

"Just hope that as we remember Servicemen and women today we remember the Australia they fought for - wasn't gay marriage and Islamic"

Mr Wallace has apologised for this tweet but he also won for saying that expelling a gay child from a school for being gay was a loving response.

Sport: Jason Akermanis for his comments saying that gay AFL players should not come out.

The GLORIA's are back for 2011. Vote now for those most worthy.

GLBTI | the GLORIA's

Did you yell at the television when Jason Akermanis made his comments about gays in the AFL, or when Ron Wilson from Channel 10 suggested that Mardi Gras was disgusting? If you did, your chance to further demonstrate your frustration with public homophobia and transphobia is here with the 2011 GLORIA's.

Voting is now open.

Modelled on the Ernies for the most sexist comment of the year, the GLORIAs are an annual event that shines the light on outrageous, ignorant and ridiculous public comments made about members of the GLBTI community.

Note: I had not heard the latest news that the bill may still be debated in Uganda. I am however pleased that Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd has made representations to the Ugandan Government on this issue. Here is my speech:

Take Action

Petition the parliament

Petition the Parliament - on any issue that you care about.
Three Questions

It's time for marriage equality in Australia - that's why we need you to answer three questions to make sure your voice is heard at the 2011 ALP National Conference.
